She graduated as Doctor of Law, specializing in constitutional law, and later worked as a journalist for ORF (Austrian Broadcasting Corporation), the NZZ (New Zurich Newspaper) and the "Oberoesterreichischen Nachrichten" (Upper Austria News).

She has published several works of non-fiction and has been writing crime novels since 1999. All of her novels, featuring journalist-investigator Mira Valensky and her friend of bosnian origin Vesna Krajner, cope with a part of nowadays society ...

In order to write her novel „Ausgekocht", Eva did a lot of practical research, working in the kitchen of one of Austrias best-known chefs: Manfred Buchinger (Buchingers Gasthaus "Zur Alten Schule"). Since then, she has continued cooking with him, and, after passing the state-approved examination in 2004, can proudly call herself a qualified chef.

Her novel "Russen kommen" (Russians coming) was voted Austrias favourite book of 2009.

Eva Rossmann was also one of the hosts of the popular ORF talkshow Club 2 (which now is unluckily detached) and works as a scriptwriter.
